So how many guys have you recruited to sit in the back hatch area when you run the
dyno, Andrew?
Not sure what's the optimum tire pressure for maximum dyno wheel adhesion.

Dave,
Time to install a dyno in your garage. You have just about everything else (including an oscilloscope - impressive). Maybe the next run they can calibrate it using RPMs on the x-axis instead of MPH. I'd rather not do the conversion - my head hurts.

Wouldn't want you to get a headache so here is a tuning run (obviously A/F not perfect yet) that is plotted in Engine RPMs. Run starts at approx 1500-1600rpm with over 300rwtq :-)

No, the Spanner is much handier to keep in the glove compartment of the car, than a laptop based version.
The fault panel for EZK is essential because it is a waste of time remapping the igntion if there is a knock sensor or Hall problem. These faults are rather obscure....
.............and yes, I had noticed that this "car" in the screen shot is running at 3500rpm and 75% load while still in Park :-)
This is because unit is being driven by the test jig

Will the LH and EZK be packaged as one SharkTuner or be sold separately? I like the fault buttons on the EZK screen. Any chance of putting a similar feature on the LH screen as well (or are they already there and I just didn't notice them at DR's place)?
By the way, there were many impressed fans of the SharkTuner at SITM.
